An adverb, like an adjective, always depends on (or is subject to) an independent clause. Like a simple adverb, an adverb usually modifies a verb, but it can also modify an adjective, an adverb, or even the rest of the sentence from which it is taken.

A participle is a verb form used as an adjective to modify nouns and pronouns. All antecedents end in ing . The past participles of all regular verbs end in -ed . Irregular verbs have different past tense endings. Participles and prepositions can add strength to our writing because they add information to our sentences.
Among the different types of modifiers, the absolute expression is the least common, but can be the most useful. An absolute clause, consisting of a noun and at least one word, adds details to the entire sentence—often details that describe some aspect of someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the sentence.

The imperative gives instructions or expresses a request or request: Please be quiet.
An exclamatory sentence expresses strong feelings by exclaiming: Shut up!
